Reading note: We’ve made this magazine to be readable online, without the need to zoom and MASTHEAD scroll. It looks best when viewed in full screen. Issue One, December 2012 www Copyright © The Drummer’s Journal 2012 The proprietors and contributors to The Drummer’s Journal have asserted their right under the Copyright Designs and Patens Act 1988 to be identified as the owners and authors of this work. THE OFF www welve months ago, the brief conversation which sowed the seeds for The Drummer’s Journal occurred. It was between a good friend and myself. Having dredged out an assorted collection of drum magazines from under my bed, he selected a copy and Tread it cover to cover. He then picked up another and did the same. After a prolonged period of silence he looked up and asked “How many drummers do you think there are in the world?” “I don’t know.” I replied. “Hundreds of thousands probably.” “So why do these magazines make it look like there are only 10?” He was right. One issue after another - all akin, all unwavering. I couldn’t respond. I felt embarrassed on behalf of drummers everywhere. I hastily shovelled them back under my bed like they were seedy pornography. The following day I sat down and thought about why I like playing the drum set. I concluded that it’s expressive. It allows for exploration, investigation and inquiry. It can inform and articulate. It can challenge, create, and discover. It can fuel debate. It is divergent and disparate. It is unique. And so this is exactly what we wanted the magazine to be. All the things, as drummers, we like about what we do. There are no reviews, buying guides or product tests. The web is already awash with plenty. Instead, there are only people and their opinions and insights as to how and why this instrument shapes their lives. Independent. Online. Free. Welcome to Volume One, Issue One of The Drummer’s Journal. LOIC MAURIN Apesanteur [Zero Gravity] Words by Tom Hoare, photography by Luke Douglas • In 1965 France became the third country in the world to launch a satellite into space • It has its own national space program called CNES • It contributes the most money to the European Space Agency • France own a 28 per cent stake in the International Space Station www t is safe to say that the French take space exploration very seriously. This is just as well, because for Loïc Maurin and the band in which he plays, the last few Iyears have been positively stratospheric – though not in the literal sense. The release of M83’s sixth studio album Hurry Up We’re Dreaming made some of the most obnoxious and borderline fascist music critics roll over to let M83 rub their bellies. Its anthemic, electronic styling was lauded as an album of the decade, never to be bettered. Not exactly a throwaway statement given that the decade in question still has four fifths of its 10 years remaining. I met Loïc in a small cafe in Paris’ third district. It’s a typical Parisian scene; the tables sprawl out onto the pavement encircled by people chatting, smoking and drinking. An awning hovers overhead. Unable to spot Loïc and thinking I was slightly early, I eventually found him sat inside at a table partially obscured by an indentation of the café wall. A trivial observation perhaps, but apart from a few Zildjian promo videos, Loïc had been a hard man to research. Most M83 related media has been squarely focused, quite unsurprisingly, on the band’s founder and songwriter Anthony Gonzalez. Yet, Loïc has not been left behind in the metaphorical lunar orbiter whilst Anthony takes the giant leap. Despite a deceptively low profile, his playing speaks volumes. 09 Loïc Maurin: So, have you guys enjoyed Paris so far? The Drummer’s Journal: It’s been great… Have you always lived here? Yeah, I grew up in the suburbs about 30 miles south of here. It’s really suburban. I moved to the centre about seven years ago. How did you start to develop an interest in music? It was before school. My mum used to tell me that I really loved to hit stuff… Were you a violent child? (Laughs) Yeah I guess! I had this toy drum set and it couldn’t have made me happier. I suppose then, I actually started drumming when I was around three. That’s quite early! It is! Maybe it was just because I was surrounded by the music from the radio. Just really mainstream music. Mainstream British music? Mostly. But the radio played lots of American music too. Obviously we have our mainstream French music as well, but I think it might be even more boring than British mainstream music. I’m proud of that! So from there I guess you got a kit. Did you learn yourself, or was it more formal? Once I reached the legal age to take drum lessons my mum took me to this drum teacher. I was eight I think. I learnt a lot of rock and a lot of 80s music too because it was 1988. I loved to play along with Wet Wet Wet, Pink Floyd, Status Quo, and stuff like that. Boney M too. I don’t know a lot about the French music scene… You’re not missing out (laughs). Everyone seems to say that! Is that really true though? Well, we have a couple of really great artists, well, more than that. Maybe five or six. But they are the only ones I am proud of. That’s just my opinion of course. THE DRUMMER’S JOURNAL www “I tried to teach too. That didn’t go very well. I was a huge failure. I hated it. And I could tell the students hated it. But I definitely hated it more.” www 11 I think, in all fairness, the French have a good reputation for a Sorry, it was a joke. A bad one. Your English is at least as good lot of electronic music. as mine. Well, yeah I suppose. That started back in the 1970s with Jean Oh, well, thanks. So, I learnt mostly from listening to English Michel Jarre, who was more of a composer. Then we have this big records and watching American TV. gap of emptiness until Daft Punk and Felix show up. Why that is beats me. We don’t have many French records to listen to, or much French TV. Did you study music at school? (Laughs) Well, maybe I can give you a few! No. It’s not in the French culture to inject a lot of music into scholarship. It is definitely more of a British or American way to do Did you enjoy school then? things. It doesn’t really happen in France at all. Not really. I had a lot of friends but gradually people leave or move away. I found that, for me, school was only about meeting people. Why do you think that is? I hated listening to teachers. The last years of my scholarship were That’s a good question. I don’t know. Our culture is more into really boring. physics, mathematics and languages. When it comes to the Arts we stick to the basics. So, were you trying to become a drummer? Yeah. This will sound pretentious, but even though I only became a I was thinking about this before actually. A friend of mine professional drummer a few years ago, I have always played drums speaks French very well because he enjoyed it at school and then and never considered doing anything else. lived in Lille for a few years. I took the same lessons but I was always terrible. I think my experience of languages is similar to When you left school, how long was it from then until you that of the majority of people in the UK. Our grasp of foreign joined M83? languages isn’t great, where as in France it is. Lots of young Maybe four years. I was supposed to go to university, but I was people in France can speak English fluently. missing classes because I was not into it at all.

But, when you compare was a huge failure. I hated it. And I could tell the students hated the average French person’s English to someone from Scandinavia, it. But I definitely hated it more.

    PERFORMED IDENTITIES: HEAVY METAL MUSICIANS BETWEEN 1984 AND 1991 Bradley C. Klypchak A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May 2007 Committee: Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Dr. John Makay Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Ron E. Shields Dr. Don McQuarie © 2007 Bradley C. Klypchak All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Between 1984 and 1991, heavy metal became one of the most publicly popular and commercially successful rock music subgenres. The focus of this dissertation is to explore the following research questions: How did the subculture of heavy metal music between 1984 and 1991 evolve and what meanings can be derived from this ongoing process? How did the contextual circumstances surrounding heavy metal music during this period impact the performative choices exhibited by artists, and from a position of retrospection, what lasting significance does this particular era of heavy metal merit today? A textual analysis of metal- related materials fostered the development of themes relating to the selective choices made and performances enacted by metal artists. These themes were then considered in terms of gender, sexuality, race, and age constructions as well as the ongoing negotiations of the metal artist within multiple performative realms. Occurring at the juncture of art and commerce, heavy metal music is a purposeful construction. Metal musicians made performative choices for serving particular aims, be it fame, wealth, or art. These same individuals worked within a greater system of influence. Metal bands were the contracted employees of record labels whose own corporate aims needed to be recognized.

  • Printmakers Presspack
    THE PRINTMAKERS “In the old days, this band would have had the words “All-Stars” in their name. Every one of them is a leading figure in British contemporary jazz. Together, they create 10 evocative sound-pictures of places and times. It’s remarkable how just five instruments and voice can suggest space and depth as they do.” Dave Gelly, The Observer The word supergroup is common currency, especially in the rock world. Jazz, of course, has its fair share of supergroups too. Sometimes, one supergroup comes along that really is very special indeed. The Printmakers is such a group. The group formed at the instigation of Steve Mead at The Manchester Jazz Festival several years ago and since then has gone from strength to strength. Award winning Nikki Iles is one of the heroines of British jazz. She has made an invaluable contribution to the jazz scene in this country and beyond, while also making a very personal musical statement in many groups, not least her own superb Anglo-American trio with Rufus Reid and Jeff Williams. Grammy nominated and ECM recording artist Norma Winstone MBE, pioneering innovator of the voice, has been a leading light in European music for many years. She collaborated with Kenny Wheeler and John Taylor in Azimuth, described by Richard Williams as “one of the most imaginatively conceived and delicately balanced of all contemporary chamber jazz groups“. She has also worked with Fred Hersch, Steve Swallow, Jimmy Rowles, Mike Gibbs and Ralph Towner. She has had a resurgence recently, with three superb award winning ECM releases in collaboration with European musicians, Klaus Gesing and Glauco Venier.

First up is the reissue of the Rolling Stones album Get Yer Ya-Ya’s Out!. What many consider the best live rock concert album of all time is now available from Abcko in a four-disc box set. Along with the original album there is a disc of five previously unreleased live performances and a DVD of those performances. There is a also a bonus CD of five live tracks from B.B. King and seven from Ike & Tina Turner, who were the opening acts on the tour. There is also a beautiful hardcover book with an essay by Russell, his photographs, fans’ notes and expanded liner notes, along with a lobby card-sized reproduction of the tour poster. Russell’s new book, Let It Bleed (Springboard), is now finally out and it’s a stunning visual look back on the infamous tour and the watershed Altamont concert. Russell doesn’t just provide his historic photos (which would be sufficient), but, like in his previous Dear Mr. Fantasy book, he serves as an insightful eyewitness of the greatest rock tour in history and rock music’s 60’s live Waterloo.

  • To Design and Development of a Cost Effective Electronic Drum Kit
    International Journal of Engineering Research and Applications (IJERA) ISSN: 2248-9622 th International Conference on Industrial Automation and Computing (ICIAC- 12-13 April 2014) RESEARCH ARTICLE OPEN ACCESS To Design and Development of a Cost Effective Electronic Drum Kit Vikas Barai*, Prof. T.H.Nagrare** *(Department Of Computer Science, G H Raisoni College Of Engineering Nagpur, India Email: [email protected]) **(Assistant Professor, Department of Information Technology G H Raisoni College Of Engineering Nagpur, India Email: [email protected]) ABSTRACT The goal of the project is to create a Cost Effective electronic drum kit using piezoelectric sensors for various percussion instruments. The inputs to the kit are small drum pads, which house a piezoelectric transducer. The output voltage from this device is detected and its output is interfaced with microcontroller . This information is processed through a Drum sound controller module which controls audio playback. The background work focuses on the concepts of tracking the timing of musical signals, deriving information from them, and creating a musical accompaniment. The system will then generate an expressive drum beat to accompany the audio signal in real time. The system is intended as a practice tool as well as a means to observe the musical interaction that may occur between humans and machine. It would involve implementing on an EEPROM for additional sound storage. It will contain a single module which will carry all sound database and allow the player to make their own patches and it will make it independent from interfacing with a computer. Keywords - Arduino, Cost efficient drum kit, Electronic Drums, Home made percussion, Midi controllers, Piezo sensors.

  • Precious but Not Precious UP-RE-CYCLING
    The sounds of ideas forming , Volume 3 Alan Dunn, 22 July 2020 presents precious but not precious UP-RE-CYCLING This is the recycle tip at Clatterbridge. In February 2020, we’re dropping off some stuff when Brigitte shouts “if you get to the plastic section sharpish, someone’s throwing out a pile of records.” I leg it round and within seconds, eyes and brain honed from years in dank backrooms and charity shops, I smell good stuff. I lean inside, grabbing a pile of vinyl and sticking it up my top. There’s compilations with Blondie, Boomtown Rats and Devo and a couple of odd 2001: A Space Odyssey and Close Encounters soundtracks. COVER (VERSIONS) www.alandunn67.co.uk/coverversions.html For those that read the last text, you’ll enjoy the irony in this introduction. This story is about vinyl but not as a precious and passive hands-off medium but about using it to generate and form ideas, abusing it to paginate a digital sketchbook and continuing to be astonished by its magic. We re-enter the story, the story of the sounds of ideas forming, after the COVER (VERSIONS) exhibition in collaboration with Aidan Winterburn that brings together the ideas from July 2018 – December 2019. Staged at Leeds Beckett University, it presents the greatest hits of the first 18 months and some extracts from that first text that Aidan responds to (https://tinyurl.com/y4tza6jq), with me in turn responding back, via some ‘OUR PRICE’ style stickers with quotes/stats. For the exhibition, the mock-up sleeves fabricated by Tom Rodgers look stunning, turning the digital detournements into believable double-sided artefacts.
